    The first unit I was sent was a dud and had to be replaced - insufficient welding on the locknut.

    As for their use, I'm not aware of anything else of the size of the big one.

    I can sketch out the shape for you to make up a cardboard model to see whether it will cope with the vessels you want to do.
    Cheers, Ern
